Westeros has multiple religions in it, but I don’t think he ever acknowledged the others (perhaps because his concerns were limited to Kings Landing, where there are few Northmen, Ironborn or R’hllorites). I believe in Martin’s latest work he’s indicated that Baelor the Blessed (who famously ended the war with Dorne)…

The Foot Fist Way was actually thirteen years ago!

Nolan is known more for his puzzle-box plotting than character work (which is fine by me). Which female characters of his do you think are interesting?

His movies are less kid-friendly than Spielberg’s.

The Tick just got cancelled so maybe Wally Pfister can go back to doing Nolan’s cinematography.

It should be noted that The Prestige is an adaptation, so someone else came up with that twist. Although my understanding is that the novel has a quite different ending.

A fighting retreat over multiple books/seasons was proposed as an alternative by Bryan Caplan, which I discussed here.

I always imagined that if I wrote an epic scifi/fantasy series like GRRM’s, I would insist on an animated adaptation. I’d also require that the entire cast consist of people whose credits are primarily voice work. Only after my fans get to view the result and find it acceptable would I give carte blanche for a…

Thoroughbreds was my favorite movie I saw in 2018, but unless there’s a murder in this one I have no plans to see it. I never saw Superbad either, which I also believe is murder-free.

Apple products cost money not everyone in a generation has. I’ve never owned any of their stuff (I’m cheap).

I would say it’s his worst.

Why?

A movie does not need to be non-chronological to be good. Which Jackie Brown is.

“Realer than real”.

I don’t think Eastwatch got rebuilt. We only saw Castle Black at the end, and that was never destroyed. Although it’s less important manning that castle since anyone can enter through the giant whole over to the east.

I still don’t think he’s a defector. The other Nights Watchmen would be obligated to kill him if that were the case.

I thought she should have used a wight’s face to disguise herself.

Loras did get the Seven Pointed Star carved in his head, but Lancel had the same thing willingly done when he joined. He was otherwise intact (until Cersei blew everyone up).

I suppose comparing them to the characters on this show would make the Moonies & Scientologists look much better.

His dirty work involved zero deaths as far as I could see, which puts him well ahead of basically every major character on the show.
